Line 6:
Meanwhile, Max (Michael Landes) is busy stealing back a stolen experimental microchip. His paths cross with Ricky when he learns that the man behind the theft was the same DXM who kidnapped Lindsay. He agrees to help her -- not the least because he falls in love with Ricky at first sight.
Widely considered to be in the [[So Bad
Filmed in Australia, by the same production team that created ''[[The Lost World]]'' TV series of the late 1990s (which also starred Rachel Blakely).
{{tropelist}}
* [[Acting for Two]]: Rachel Blakely plays both Ricky and Claire, Max's virtual personal assistant...which is the [[Freudian Excuse]] for his slightly-creepy crush on Ricky.
* [[Applied Phlebotinum]]: "Element 120", a potentially limitless and clean-burning source of energy...{{spoiler|which becomes highly explosive when exposed to oxygen.}}
Line 22 ⟶ 21:
* [[Future Slang]]: Hackish. Imagine if [[Leet Lingo]] evolved into a spoken language, and you've got the gist. Twonky...
* [[Genre Deconstruction]]: of spy movies in general. Max is anything but a suave, confident International Man of Mystery. He's really just a useless dork with a bunch of cool gadgets.
* [[Hell
* [[Hot Amazon]]: Tyler
* [[No Transhumanism Allowed]]: played with. The evil part of DXM's plan is not uploading the minds of his followers; it's what he plans to do to everyone else.
Line 31 ⟶ 30:
* [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future]]
* [[Victoria's Secret Compartment]]: Tyler makes use of this with a data disc. It doesn't work [[Marshmallow Hell|as well as she hoped]].
* [[What Happened to The Mouse?]]: Ricky and Claire are identical. This is never explained. Possibly this would have been explored if the series had been picked up.
* [[Xtreme Kool Letterz]]: DXM stands for ''Deus Ex Machina''.
